AI summary: who the study is looking for
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults with heart failure and a type of high blood pressure in the lungs (pulmonary hypertension group 2). It studies a device treatment that targets nerves around the lung artery.
- Age
- 22 to 85 years
- Sex
- All sexes can join.
- Disease stage
- Heart failure with pulmonary hypertension. Mean pulmonary artery pressure above 20 mmHg at rest. Pulmonary vascular resistance of 3WU or more at rest. Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure above 15 mmHg at rest, or above 18 with passive leg raise. NYHA Class II or III.
- Earlier treatment
- No CRT, ICD, pacemaker or other heart procedure (except right heart catheterization) in the last 3 months.
- Biomarker or test result
- Kidney function (GFR) of 25 ml/min or more.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Life expectancy under 2 years
- Cannot take dual antiplatelet drugs or anticoagulants, or allergic to aspirin or clopidogrel
- Cannot tolerate right heart catheterization
- Severe aortic, mitral or pulmonary valve regurgitation
- Clot in the target treatment area of the pulmonary artery

Pulmonary Artery DenerVation Clinical Study Using the Gradient Denervation System in Heart Failure Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension Group 2 (PreVail-PH2 OUS Study)
Characterize the impact of pulmonary artery denervation on the quality of life in Heart Failure Patients with Group 2 Pulmonary Hypertension
Inclusion: Mean Pulmonary Artery Pressure (mPAP) >20 mmHg at rest; Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR) ≥ 3WU at rest; Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure > 15 mmHg (at rest) or > 18 with passive leg raise; NYHA Class II or III; Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) ≥ 25 ml/min.
Exclusion: Inability to take dual antiplatelet or anticoagulants, hypersensitivity or allergy to aspirin or clopidogrel; Unable to tolerate right heart catheterization; Systemic infection or localized infection/rash at planned access site at time of procedure; CRT, ICD, Pacemaker or other Interventional cardiac procedure (except RHC) within the last 3 months; Life expectancy of < 2 years; Unwilling to provide informed consent or complete follow-up assessments; Severe aortic, mitral or pulmonary valve regurgitation; Clot or Thrombus in any potential target ablation zone (right, left or main pulmonary artery).
